Diffraction and the extent of the spreading (diffraction) depends to how the width of the gap is compared to the wavelength of the waves.

Luda [366]

Answer:

The time travel is

t=8 s

Explanation:

a= 2 \frac{m}{s^{2} } \\v=-6 \frac{m}{s} \\x=16m

x_{f}=x_{o}+v_{o}*t+\frac{1}{2} *a*t^{2}

x_{f}=0-6*t+\frac{1}{2} *2*t^{2}

t^{2}-6*t-16=0\\ using :\\\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4*c*a } }{2} \\\frac{-(-6)+/-\sqrt{(-6)^{2}-4*(-16)*(1) } }{2}=\frac{3}{2} +/- \frac{10}{2} \\t_{1} = 2s \\t_{2} = 8s

Check

t_{2}=8s

x_{f}=x_{o}+v_{o}*t+\frac{1}{2} *a*t^{2}

x_{f}=0-6*+\frac{1}{2} *2*8^{2}

x_{f}=-48+64\\x_{f}=16

Which important safety measures should be taken during a hurricane? Select two options.
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

1) move away from the windows.

When abrupt changes in pressure (produced by the hurricane) affect the windows, they can "explode" and be a serious danger for the people.

2) Go to the lowest level of the building.

Is safer than the upper levels because the lower levels suffer less from the strength of the hurricane (being closer to the ground increases the structural resistance), make sure that you have everything you may need in case of an emergency.

The potential energy of a watermelon is 15.0 J. The watermelon is 3.0 m high. What is the mass of the watermelon?
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

m = 0.51[kg]

Explanation:

Potential energy is defined as the product of mass by gravity by height.

E_{pot}=m*g*h

where:

Epot = potential energy = 15 [J]

m = mass [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.8 [m/s²]

h = elevation = 3 [m]

Now replacing:

E_{pot}=m*g*h\\15=m*9.8*3\\m = 0.51[kg]

When a person floating in swimming pool, they experience an upthrust. what causes this effect?​
velikii [3]
When your head sticks out of the water the upthrust reduces as your head is no longer displacing water, and there is 0 resultant force so you float at that level. hope this helps, can i get brainliest please
